Bump your comment... the truth be told to young black Americans... they probably won’t believe it... just like Holocaust deniers.

Truer words were never posted.

The race hustlers just continue to lie and the complicit media continues to permit it.

The more they scream ‘racism’, the less validity it has. I usually yawn whenever I hear it anymore.

Exactly right. Just ignore charges of racism. It's not as if they'd vote with us, anyway, so screaming racism is no reason to pull any punches.

Just don't ever, ever actually be racist!

As others have already pointed out, all I heard was booing and “Kill the bill!”

It’s not impossible that there were one or two A-holes in the crowd who used the N-word in the middle of all that shouting. Any group can have a bad apple. But there’s no way in heck any reasonable person could conclude that the crowd was a racist mob as it’s been suggested by Lewis and some in the MSM.

Conclusion: 11th hour hit piece on the eve of an unsure vote.

I am surprised ACORN agents were NOT there in disguise and yelling racist slurs. Isn’t that the kind of dirty trick that community organizers are supposed to do?

Bull! I didn’t hear anything like that. If it was said, I’d bet good money that they were SEIU plants to intentionally provocateur a response and to make these folks look bad.

Something like this is a typical union tactic...but we know the unions aren’t crawling up Zero’s butt, don’t we.

re: They are Black, not deaf. This is an intentional misunderstanding. They are just Race Pimping as usual.

Right. Anything to capture undeserved sympathy and a subsequent possible vote or two.

They heard the "n" word because they were listening to rap on their iPods as they "fought" their way through the lynch mob murderous crowd peaceful protestors?

BTW, anybody in the MSM mention that Cindy Sheehan and a bunch of her supporters were arrested?

Wonder why not?

Agreed. The last time I heard it was from my grandmother when I was 8 or 9 and she said “colored” as in

“Wanna go with me to Sally’s?”

“Who”s Sally?”

“The colored woman that is takin’ in ironing because her sorry husband done runned off and left her and them 9 kids. We cain’t embarrass her with no charity, so we’s gotta let her do the ironing.”

When we arrived at the impoverished squalor of Sally’s yard, she warned me to remember my manners and treat Sally and “them children as if they was fambly”... and to remember that I am a lady and “ack like it”. She hugged and kissed all the children, gave them candy she had brought in her purse saying she had “done gone and got the sugar sickness and had to get all the goodies out of the house” (a blatant lie that she claimed was only a white lie), and gave poor Sally a heaping basket of ironing to do that had already been “sprinkled” and each piece carefully flattened, spread, and neatly stacked to make it easier for her.

My grandmother was very poor, southern, and uneducated. She couldn’t afford to pay Sally for the ironing, but did because Sally, a heretofore unknown black woman, needed help and it was the Christian thing to do. We ate red beans and rice that weekend because the ironing money came out of the grocery money she kept in a can in the kitchen cabinet. This took place over 40 years ago. I remember it as if it was yesterday and is one of the many fond memories of my grandmother.

It makes me angry to hear people make accusations of whites screaming the “n-word”. If it was used, I would have heard it often around my “redneck” grandparents and their relatives and friends. They used the term “colored” for years, then “negro” when that word came into fashion, and changed to “black” when informed that “negro” was deemed taboo. I did hear the word “nigra” used by some of the people that came over during the “negro” era, but never the actual “n-word”; although I assume that term is considered just as offensive. She drew the line at “African-American” saying she was too old and tired of all the “ridiklous” changes and “black” was the last word for her. My grandfather, on the other hand, died using the term “negro”.

Nobody from the teaparty called Lewis the “N-word”. I’d bet my life on it. If something like that happened, it was a plant.
